Are you sure about that or just guessing like me? (rhetorical

Cooked greens or a salad that similar to pico de gallo? I didn't
need to.
 
Get lost Carol!

Julie could trade her bland meal for his hot piece. You know what
they say about divorcees.

It's seasonal. When Julie is *in season*, he's "on demand."

Etc.
 
And I thought, "Cool! I know quite a bit about Tanzanian cuisine, including home-cooking, street/fast, and restaurant food. Personal experiences. I'll be happy to share what I know and I look forward to a discussion about it!"
 
But of course, this being RFC in 2020, the thread immediately took a dive into the sewer and stayed there.

The times they are a-changing. But why not say your piece and ignore
the noise?

You have to give him some credit though. He didn't get sidetracked

A free standing wood stove does radiate a lot of heat but my guess is that most of the heat still goes up the chimney.

Regulations, both federal and local are helping. Many locales have days
that prohibit use of burning and new equipment has to meet standards.
Of course, much old equipment is still in use and will be for a long time.
 
EPA's mandatory smoke emission limit for wood stoves is now 4.5 grams of
smoke per hour (g/h) under Step 1 of the revised standards of
performance for wood burning room heaters; Step 2 will take effect on
May 15, 2020, when the standard will be lowered to 2.0 g/h.

In the Australian countryside, everybody does what they want. There
are even lots of people who can use garbage pickup, but choose not to.
Instead, they burn all their household rubbish. I think they're
ferals.

Old stoves were 50% efficient on a good day, but now they are about 85%

I might be wrong but my guess is that a stove won't be getting an 85% percent efficiency rating unless it has refinements such as an outside air intake and/or catalytic converter and/or heat exchangers.

We heat with wood ... which I cut split and stack with the help of
modern (sorta) technology . BUT we also have a propane (too far out in
the country for natgas to be profitable) heater for those times when we
want to go out of town in the winter . Like the last 3 days that we
spent in Memphis . I only turn the gas heater to about 50° , it's job is
to keep the pipes from freezing . Took almost an hour to warm the house
up (with the wood stove) after we got home !

They've been using catalytic converters for about 25 years now.

Last year it was the lima beans that turned into sludge as they
cooked, and this time it was navy beans that didn't soften after 4
hours of simmering.
 
They're 0 for 2 on beans. Fuck Walmart (and fuck you, John)

Obvious that the dwarf doesn't have a clue how to cook dried beans...
I've cooked more than enough dried beans to feed all of Texass twice
and no one ever complained. Nothing easier to cook than dried beans.
The dwarf only knows to cook his shitty sandwiches.
Ahahahahaha. . .

In some states you can become a licensed inspector and have to pass a
test. That would at least help with the quality of the work done. I've
heard stories where major flaws were missed. Also, there is wording in
the contracts that the inspector is not liable if they miss something.

Yeah, a stone mason is an expert at roofs, electric, plumbing,
heating, etc. Generally the buyer pays a house inspection company to
check all aspects of the property. No one cares if the window shades
are crap but major defects have to be repaired by the seller.

The Dish remote can operate with voice control but I'm not keen on it,
if I'm going to converse with a female voice I need to see her assets,
and if it's a male voice I'll hang up, I can't imagine any straight
male doing that job.

My mother had a girlfriend who was blind, my mother would fold her
bills each denomination in a different way. My mother also had a deaf
girlfriend and she learned to sign.
My uncle, my mother's brother, lost a leg above the knee in the Korean
war, he always had a job, he was a helicopter mechanic in the army and
the aft gunner on the helicopter. He always had a good job after the
war, he became head helicopter mechanic for Republic Aircraft on Lung
Guyland... they didn't care that he only had one leg. But his young
wife couldn't handle it and divorced him, also took their son and
moved to Florida. It was not a happy situation but he coped.
At the ripe old age of 70 he bought a game pavillion in Coney Island,
where people had to toss a small wooden ring over pop bottles for
prizes. Seems silly but he made more money than as a helicopter
mechanic, and he enjoyed interacting with people.
Kootchie can't hold a job as a bed pan nurse.

150mg is about the size of a pencil eraser.
